But can he produce wins and take us to another level? I'm not saying he can't. I'm just saying that it has yet to be proven, and saying he can at this point is just a statement of faith.
Yeah, it's unproven in that he has not done it before.
OTOH, I look at the roster CJH inherited and what he did with it, how the season developed. He made adjustments. I particularly liked the way he stepped away from his system when we lost several straight games in January and tailored the offense to the players he had. I don't recall XCMD doing this with any success... or basically at all.
I was also impressed that even when we had a short roster he was willing to boot our best penetrating and athletic player when he could/would not meet the standards asked of him.
We'll know a lot more this time next year. Till then it's fodder for silly season wrangling and debate.
